"As we have a wealth of excelent singers and residents plus regular visitors including such notories as Stanley Accrington. Geoff Higginbottom and Gary and Vera Aspey [...]"

That must be handy, if anyone needs something notorized.

"There has never been anyone at our club, as far as I know, who has not understood that there may be people better suited to the circumstance than them and has not had the good grace to stand down when the need arises."

Stand down? Does this mean someone who had been told or led to believe he or she could perform a song or two might get "asked" to stand aside? If I saw a musician being treated with such discourtesy, I'd be out the door before you could say "Jack Robinson".
